“It’s true. Someone must have let it in on purpose. Huo Qiu is investigating this now. You should go back and check on Xiao Meng. She has a fever.” Shi Hu said as he looked at Haitang. “If you hadn’t come back today, we would have sent someone to find you tomorrow.”
"I understand, Father... Please find someone to take me back." Haitang nodded and said. Although she panicked at first, she quickly calmed down. Hearing this, Shi Hu nodded.
Someone was sent to take Haitang back. When Haitang was on her way back, she saw Dongfang Chen. Dongfang Chen immediately ran over and hugged Haitang. "Mom... I'm sorry... I didn't take good care of my sister. She got bitten by a snake."
Children are all mischievous, and Dongfang Meng was no exception. Because she was going to pick flowers to make patterns, she was accidentally bitten by a snake. Fortunately, Haitang had mentioned at the beginning how to treat snake bites.
Although Xiaomeng is young, she has been exposed to these things since childhood, and the school also teaches these kinds of knowledge, so she quickly learned how to handle the emergency. Children in this era are not as pampered as children in modern times, and they learn a lot of survival skills very quickly.
When Haitang looked at Dongfang Chen, she knew he felt guilty and said, "Mom will go see Xiaomeng." Dongfang Chen nodded upon hearing this. Haitang didn't bother to comfort him; instead, she decided to go see Dongfang Meng.
When Haitang went to see Dongfang Meng, she found that the other party had a fever. She breathed a sigh of relief when she took Dongfang Meng's pulse. "How is Mom?" Dongfang Chen asked Haitang with some concern.
"It's nothing serious," Haitang said upon hearing this. "It's just that there's some residual poison that's causing Xiaomeng to have a fever... She'll be fine after she sweats it out."
Haitang explained to Dongfang Chen that the remaining poison needed to be cleared, and the current method was to induce fever and sweating, which would quickly make him feel better. Upon hearing this, Dongfang Chen nodded.
When Haitang saw Dongfang Chen's dark circles, she reached out and gently ruffled his hair. "Don't overthink it. You may be her brother, but you're not her. You can't protect her every moment. You have your own things to do and your own life to live. Don't blame yourself for everything that happens to your sister. If you really think it's your fault, then your father and I are also at fault."
When Haitang looked at Dongfang Chen, she comforted him, saying that this was not Dongfang Chen's fault, nor could it be his fault. Haitang knew very well that this matter had nothing to do with Dongfang Chen.
Dongfang Chen needs military training, because the situation is very tense. The little beastmen who have transformed into beastmen all need to undergo training. This is also why Xingxing and Yueyue did not come after Dongfang Meng's incident.
Because Xingxing and Yueyue were training new recruits, there was a clear rule in the tribe that nothing was more important than military matters. Upon hearing this, Dongfang Chen nodded, and Haitang kissed his forehead, "Go get some sleep."
"Hmm." Dongfang Chen nodded when he heard this. He had stayed up all night and fell asleep quickly when he lay down. When Haitang looked at Dongfang Meng, her gaze was somewhat cold. She clenched her fist tightly and slammed it against the pillar next to her.
Haitang took a deep breath. When Dongfangyu looked at Haitang, he said, "Mom... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have gone swimming that day. I should have gone with my sister instead."
“It has nothing to do with you,” Haitang said with a smile, not taking her anger out on the child. “You and Xiaochen are the same, don’t overthink it.”
The whole thing was someone else's fault for releasing the snake; it had nothing to do with the two children. Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yu nodded and looked directly at Dongfang Meng. Haitang gently stroked Dongfang Meng's hair and helped the child lie down next to her.
After returning, Haitang went straight to see her child. Huoqiu also came. When he saw Haitang, Huoqiu told her some things, "The snake was brought in by these human slaves. They are newly purchased slaves from the Bull Tribe. They say they don't know what happened..."
"People from the Bull Tribe?" Haitang was a little surprised when she heard this. Huoqiu nodded, but quickly sneered.
"The people of the Bull Tribe say it has nothing to do with them, but I can't believe it. We wanted the Bull Tribe's land, but we didn't give them any corresponding benefits, so they can't possibly be innocent in this matter," Huo Qiu said, looking at Haitang.
"Investigate thoroughly. If they are truly innocent, don't slander the people of the Bull Tribe," Haitang said, glancing at Huoqiu. Huoqiu nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I'll investigate further. If it really has nothing to do with the Bull Tribe, then those people wouldn't be able to take any further action." Huo Qiu looked at Hai Tang and said, "As for the medicine, you can deal with it after the child recovers."
"Yes, I know..." Haitang nodded. Dongfang Meng's illness would be cured by tomorrow. Haitang went to the pharmacy at her home today, got a prescription, and started decocting it.
While Haitang was decocting the medicine, Dongfang Meng came over as usual. Haitang brought the medicine to Dongfang Meng and was about to take it away when Dongfang Meng looked at Haitang and said, "Mom, I feel unwell."
"Mom knows. Next time, don't go to places with lots of flowers and plants. Even if you do go, take a bamboo stick and tap around to see if there's anything inside," Haitang said, looking at Dongfang Meng.
